[Spridgets] Where were you when the LBC bug got you?

[Matt P]

I was 10 and saw one modified for off road in an old 4 wheel drive magazine.
almost bought a MGB when I turned 16. THen in 1994 I got the 76 Spridget from
a friend who coudlnt fix it. Sold it to another friend and then bought a 78
Spridget. Ran that for a while and then bought the 76 back from the friend.
Now I am 36 and the only thing I have left that id LBC is a set of valve rods
for a 1500.
